Bath resealing near Durweston

Bath resealing in Durweston without replacing anything

Resealing is one of the simplest ways to protect your bathroom. Old, split or mouldy sealant lets water get behind the bath or tray, and resealing puts a stop to that. If you are dealing with silicone coming away from the tiles and old sealant that looks dirty, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Resealing in Durweston: why it matters

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. We remove the old sealant completely. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Durweston customers choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • No need to remove anything

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Durweston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairs by material

Baths

We fill the bath before sealing, to open the joint fully.

  • Gaps in the seal
  • Gaps by the taps
  • Black spots in the silicone

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Durweston

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Durweston questions

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the area and mask the joint lines.
  2. Old sealant and residue are removed.
  3. We clean, treat and dry the joint.
  4. We run a continuous bead of new silicone.
  5. We smooth the bead, remove the tape and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Replace the seal when mould sets in
  • Dry the seal after bathing
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Air the room after use

Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem, it’s a sign moisture is sitting in the joint. Resealing early keeps water out of the walls and floor.
